NA'ALEH YOGA: Yoga Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake... In this episode, I'm honored to speak with Uri Kelman, a meditation teacher and guide. Uri, originally from LA and now living in Israel, shares how meditation and breathwork became his lifeline during a difficult divorce and how those practices helped him reconnect to himself, his spirituality, and his sense of joy. In our conversation, we discuss meditation for beginners, mindfulness, the chakras and the kabbalistic sefirot, spirituality, healing and living intuitively. Whether you've ever felt lost, anxious, or stuck in the middle of a life shift or simply curious to learn more about meditation, this episode is for you. Uri's bio: Uri Kelman is a meditation guide, spiritual practitioner, and father of four who weaves together wisdom from Buddhism, Taoism, Kabbalah, and Jewish tradition. His work is rooted in presence, emotional honesty, and the practice of opening the heart. Uri draws from his own journey of healing, including meditation, breathwork, and reflective practice, to support others in reconnecting with gratitude and clarity. He believes that spirituality is not about escaping life, but about learning to meet each moment with awareness and compassion. Through guided practices and heartfelt reflections, Uri invites others to slow down, release what no longer serves them, and trust the natural unfolding of life. His teachings are grounded, relatable, and shaped by a deep respect for both ancient traditions and modern experiences of growth, love, and loss.

What does our Lord mean by stay awake? How do we prepare during the Advent season? Listen to my homily for answers to these questions and for more information.
Olly Shaw, Matthew 24: 36 - 44
Fr Antony Jukes says Advent marks both the commemoration of Christ's birth and anticipation of his return—at the end of time, at the end of our own lives, and in the unexpected moments of each day
The holidays have a way of pulling us back into old patterns, old roles, and old versions of ourselves. You know the feeling. You turn down the street you grew up on and suddenly your chest tightens, the body remembers old tension, and the brain starts scanning for emotional memories you didn't even realize were still there.In today's episode, we explore why this happens and what's actually going on inside the brain and body during the holiday season. From identity memory to family-system “magnetizing,” your mind is doing far more behind the scenes than you think.And the best part, you don't have to let those patterns run the show.We break down five simple practices that will help you stay grounded, present, and connected to the real you, not the outdated version of you your family remembers. These practices are easy, accessible, and designed to support you from Thanksgiving through the New Year.If you're ready to move through the holidays with more grace, ease, and awareness, this episode will give you everything you need.For more support, resources, and our holiday offerings, visit inspirecreateManifest.com/hub.Happy Thanksgiving, my friends.

NA'ALEH YOGA: Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest+ Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake... This Yoga Nidra practice is centered on aromatherapy, a full body scan, and a short kavana (intention) to move you between wakefulness and sleep. The episode emphasizes preparing a quiet, comfortable space, engaging with meaningful scents, and sensing the "spaces between" the body to invite deep rest and renewal. Rooted in the month of Cheshvan's theme of stillness, the practice offers simple integration ideas—journaling, pausing throughout the day, and noticing aromas—and closes with guided return steps and resources to continue your practice. To prepare for this practice, choose a pleasant and meaningful aroma to interact with throughout. You may diffuse essential oil, burn incense or herbs, light a scented candle, use a scented eye pillow, or anything else you enjoy. Episode Summary: Here's what you can expect: Preparation: Set up your space before practicing with all the props you need, such as a blanket and pillow. Choose an aroma to bring with you to this practice. You may diffuse essential oil, burn incense or herbs, light a scented candle, use a scented eye pillow, or have nearby something pleasant and meaningful that you can smell. Begin by settling into a comfortable position. Make sure you're fully supported completely at ease resting on your back or in the posture of your choice. Intention Setting: You will be guided to set a powerful Sankalpa/kavanah (intention) for this practice. Choose a meaningful, positive "I am..." statement that resonates with your heart and soul, reflecting your life's orienting resolve and deepest truth. Rotation of Consciousness: Experience a relaxing body scan focusing on each part of your body to shift further into a state of deep healing rest. Breath Awareness: Deepen your restful state through aroma-guided breathing. Visualization: Rest in deep awareness experiencing guided imagery connected to the sense of smell and its memory associations Return to Your Intention: Reconnect with the intention you set earlier. Let it permeate and encode throughout your body. Externalization: Gently transition back to your ordinary waking state. Reconnect with your surroundings and receive ideas to integrate this practice into your daily life.

https://youtu.be/f4AzxgarUrcPart 2 of our Fall Feasts prophecy series continues with the most powerful revelation yet:The pattern of the Spring and Fall Feasts reveals the entire prophetic timeline — from Messiah's first coming to His return at the final harvest.We'll examine the parable of the Wheat and Tares (Matthew 13), the resurrection in 1 Corinthians 15, and the final harvest in Revelation 14 to show how Yahusha was planted during Passover and Unleavened Bread, and why the harvest of His people happens in the Fall Feasts — Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles.
In today's passage, we see Jesus spending time on the Mount of Olives with his inner circle of disciples. It's an intimate conversation about the future and coming difficulties, yet Jesus encourages them to see beyond the coming struggle to His return and ultimate victory. Jesus gives a series of warnings so that no one leads us astray, and we don't become alarmed when trouble comes. Instead, He calls us to stay awake, be on guard, and continue to learn and understand His Word, so that we may endure to the end.

as Jesus was preparing to go to the cross he asked Peter, James, John to come with him to pray and he asked them to watch and pray. they could not because the spirit was willing and the flesh was weak. how many times do we get distracted and not pay attention to what Jesus has called us to do and succumb to our flesh.

Preparing for Christ's Return: Living Ready in the Red Zone. Are we living in the final moments before Christ's return? This powerful message explores how believers should prepare for Jesus' second coming in what appears to be 'the red zone' - that critical final stretch before eternity.Discover biblical insights about the timing of Christ's return from Matthew 24, where Jesus clearly states that only the Father knows the day and hour. Rather than trying to predict when Jesus will return, learn why our focus should be on living faithfully right now.This message addresses several crucial questions:- Who controls the timing of Christ's return?- What specific role has God assigned you in these last days?- What are the eternal consequences of how we live?- How can we practically prepare for Christ's return?You'll learn why chasing the spotlight often leads to spiritual failure, and why authentic Christianity goes far beyond wearing Christian t-shirts or displaying religious symbols. The message provides three practical disciplines that will help you grow closer to Christ and live ready: consistent prayer, regular Bible reading, and meaningful service to others.With powerful illustrations from sports and everyday life, this teaching challenges believers to move beyond merely wearing the Christian jersey to actually playing their position with excellence. The message concludes with thought-provoking questions for self-examination about your spiritual readiness.

NA'ALEH YOGA: Yoga Nidra Journeys for Deep Rest Close Your Eyes and Stay Awake... In this episode, I'm honored to speak with David Crowe, a seasoned acupuncturist and herbalist, about how deep rest practices like yoga nidra, body-based meditation, and botanical medicine work together to retrain the nervous system and support lasting healing. We deep dive into the practice of yoga nidra and discuss practical integration—simple herb-and-mindfulness routines for home—cautions around entheogens and trauma, and resources for continuing practice and study.

He has been a clinician, consultant, researcher and educator for over 40 years, and is an expert in Chinese, Tibetan, Ayurvedic and Western herbal medicine. David was one of the first Westerners to train and be licensed in Chinese medicine, and one of the few to study Ayurvedic and Tibetan medicine in traditional internships in Nepal and India; he was also one of the first medical pioneers to use essential oils and aromatherapy in clinical practice, and to integrate these diverse modalities into comprehensive treatments. David has operated several clinics, including a practice in Kathmandu serving the Tibetan and Nepalese communities as well as international travelers, and practices in California in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Monterey, and in Ashland, Oregon. David currently serves people from all over the world through his telemedicine practice. David is a passionate medical researcher and educator of state-of-the-art herbal medicine, and an authority on the safe uses of herbs and essential oils. He avoids the popular trends of market-driven internet medicine and relies instead on documented research and traditional ethnobotanical wisdom and methods.
